Maybe, but if they happen to know someone familiar with web dev, you’re really talking about a Wordpress site and a QR code that goes to that domain.

I rented from an airport car rental once and the lot was _full_ of unused cars, and this was RDU which is a fairly high-volume airport. I can imagine you’d maybe have issues if you wanted a very specific kind of car, but even then I doubt y

It’s been a hot minute since I watched this episode[1] so the points aren’t fresh on my mind, but unions are good for everyone even if you aren’t in one. And yes, in demand skills do make it easier to bargain as an individual, however, that

Do you happen to have any resources on writing games in TS? I will def google, but game development has always been oddly hard for me and I’ve been in typescript land for a while now so figure it’s a good time to try again

This is apples to oranges - the stock Photos app isn’t shareware/demo ware etc. it’s a basic photo gallery app with a really solid search feature, and it integrates into the camera app just liked you’d expect on any other mobile OS. An

You’re suggesting Apple would block porn all together on their platform. You can go to any XXX site right now, find VR videos, and play them in your mobile browser. Through on a Cardboard or even a crappy Polaroid “VR” phone case and you’re

I hope that seeing where the Newton could’ve gone gives them the confidence to continue with the AVP. A few iterations could really show a great product both in terms of quality and practicality. I had a Newton and loved it, and eventually

This is a very good point - if the content seen on a feed is curated and tailored to a specific user based on some unseen algorithm, that uses tons of opaque metrics about that person, it feels more and more like these companies take an edi

Apollo was the only way I used Reddit - the browser experience is meh, and I’m almost always using Old Reddit when I go there on desktop or mobile because it’s just easier to get what I’m looking for. Once Old gets the axe I’m sure I’ll be

According to TFA it appears that the old ads used to only link externally, or to a post made by a real user. Now the ads are posts themselves that self-link to Reddit.

For anyone who hasn’t played Duck Game, while you may not be able to for much longer, I highly recommend it. The dev also said he will keep working on it even if he has to make a “new” game under a different title.

I will agree that that particular part of the write up is suspect, who exactly said this beyond those nameless “business leaders” that are just now realizing remote work is a thing? I wouldn’t argue that frontline workers haven’t harbored s

Some apps, like Ok Cupid, have this. Others like Tinder give you the option to set “intention” such as short-term or casual, but that doesn’t necessarily equate to non-monogamy. Apps like Hinge allow you to specify that you’re non-monogamou

It’s more that the shareholders needed to be appeased, and CEOs realized they could save money by firing people and could make money by making things cheaply. You can hire less-skilled workers if you don’t intend (or care) that your product

“Growing up on the edgy internet” isn’t the same as a work week of seeing non-stop images of CSAM or beheadings or shootings. Even if you were on /b/ all day everyday in 2007, the two aren’t remotely comparable. I was in a Chatrou

I think an important distinction in good or poor quality AI art is similar to good or poor quality models made in Blender. A modeler can spend hours or days on a model; testing different cuts and resolutions and extrusions etc to get it jus
